    Was my first and didn't even care for these back then, since I had had a permanent Internet connection only for a few months (having started my studies and moved to my own home).

    My very first was the University of Helsinki's Theology students discussion forum. Not much anything that made sense, but that's how I got started.

    Then I started posting some advices on bgII into a finnish discussion forum. From there I got the address of this place.

    It was love...make that infatuation at first sight. SP's just great :grin: !

    So far BoM is the only place I've ever posted, actually.

    I think the official Fallout boards were where I first posted, but I really can't be sure. Not something I've, uh, ever thought about, really.

    My first forum was...uh, Dungeon Baldur's Gate, or Baldur's Gate Dungeon, or something along those lines. Anyone remember it? It was pretty massive. I remember getting all excited when rumours of BG2 first began to surface.

    Planet Baldur's Gate? I've been there a few times, but I never bothered to look for forums.

    No. Baldur's Gate Dungeon, I believe. It died after a while and the forumers scattered away.

    BoM was definitely my first regular posting board - I can't remember posting anywhere else before it. I was stuck early on in the first IWD game, and came here for help - I've been here ever since.

    My posting has slowed, but I still drop in from time to time to see how the youngins are doing... ;)

    Like so many others here BOM is the first forum that I'd spent any significant amount of time at. Originally I was searching for some NWN help on the official NWN webpage when I came across a link for Sorcerers Place. I've been hooked ever since.

    BoM, never even really knew what a board was all about until I found this one. I knew what I was missing.

    BoM was the first for me too. I found it while searching for some Bg walkthroughs or something. It's one of the few forums I've seen with really interesting in-depth discussions. I haven't been around much lately, been spending more time on music/gear forums.
